Whether you're trying to figure out how your character would fare in this setting, trying to get some samples together, or just dipping your toes in the water, you've come to the right place! The Test Drive is here to make your life easy by letting you see what the game is like without actually joining it first. So here is how it works:
1: Post a starter with your character, including whether they are a god or shinki in the subject line.
2: Act like your character is established enough in the setting to allow your thread to go places.
3: Take on any god/shinki of your choosing, as long as they're not already in the game!
4: Comment around to the other people on the meme.
5: Have lots of fun!

Illegal Irritations
Nothing supernatural about this one, there are just some guys sell illegal drugs and weaponry in some of the back alleys of Tokyo. They might solicit you to try and get your business or you might just happen upon them targeting someone else. Either way, are you really okay with letting this go on in your city?
For some strange reason, a bunch of jellyfish have taken to literally jumping out of the ocean and all over the beaches. They seem to be scared of something in the water, but be that as it may, they're scaring away all the beach tourism! Quick, figure out how to get them back in the water!
A brand new store is opening up and, as part of their grand opening, they want people to perform for their potential customers! And they're just dragging people off of the streets and shoving them into ridiculous, off-brand character costumes to do it. Whether you're part of the show or watching others make fools of themselves, it promises to be a good time.
There's a great, new brand of lingerie being sold in Akihabara that is all the rage right now. They're stylish and sexy and come in all shapes, sizes, and colors! There's even some that are themed after popular shows. But people who are buying them keep winding up missing. Coincidence?
So many birds are molting on the spot for no reason, shedding feathers all over the streets, on peoples' cars, and in any space they can get into. It's really not their fault, but darn if it's not making things difficult to do with all these feathers around! Either help clean up or figure out how to stop the mass molting!

If you're uncertain about anything, feel free to check out the Premise, Rules, and FAQ posts. And don't hesitate to ask any questions you might have on the FAQ!
When and if you're ready to join the game, check out the Taken Characters before throwing in a Reserve and starting on your Application
Have fun!

[ Wow, that turned quickly. Although not entirely, considering how close to the edge of actual irritation she was.
And with a pinched breath through her nose, like it was something she was so pained about and felt fifty shades of wrong, she looked Misaki dead in the eye, with the utmost seriousness. ]
Just act like you're my boyfriend or something.
[ Yeah, those words just came out of her mouth. And judging from the way her eyebrows raise and how extremely uncomfortably she shifts there for a moment, she's about as pleased about this plan as he might be. ]
We're here to get something... for a date...
[ y u p ]
Which sounds terrible, but it's the only alibi we have. Besides, if we play our cards right, no one will even notice we're there!
[ Gods, please let no one notice that they're there. ]
FACEPALM
Your boyfriend?! I can't just... I'm not... That won't work! [ Aaaaand now he's completely red. ] And if I were acting like that I wouldn't bring you here on a date!
[ What kind of pervert thinks of a lingerie shop as an appropriate place for a date?! Wait, he doesn't want to know.
Although her conclusion is a reminder that they're shinki and that this might play to their advantage at least manages to calm the hysterics a little. ] R-right. We... we'd be invisible, right? No one would know we're there? [ Does that make it better? He takes one more look at the window and goes red again, burying his face in his hands. Somewhere, his god is probably getting stung a lot right now. Sorry, god? ]
I can't do this!
[1/2]
If you have a better idea, then I would love to hear it!
[ Was she getting a little fed up with this whole thing? Oh. Oh yeah. But instead, she will shift her weight to one side, gripping her elbows in either hand and looking away indignantly in thought. ]
And not completely, but we might be able to slip in unnoticed, just so long as we don't make a scene. I just want to watch a few of them.
[ ...Watch them do what, Lux. ]
Get a good idea of what they look like, see if any of them have anything in common, other than shopping at this particular store. Gather information.
[ Oh, well that sounded a little better. She didn't seem to think it odd at least, judging from how unaffected she looked.
... ]
[2/2]
not that he needed any help from her), Lux sighed.(Maybe she was a little too intense there...)
All right, all right.
Her expression smoothing a bit, she offered him a somewhat sympathetic, if not extremely tired smile. ]
How about this? I can watch from the inside, and you can keep tabs on who leaves. Get a good look at them if you can, and try to remember as much as possible. We'll need that information later.
[ A smile which softened slightly as she tipped her chin downward, canting her head slightly and trying to get a good look at his face from behind his hands. ]
Okay?
no subject
What dignity though?Her offer catches him by surprise and his head comes up again, blinking at her in confusion. That hadn't been the response he'd expected from her and there's part of him that very much wants to latch onto the out she offers like a lifeline.
But there's no way in hell he can send her in there alone if people are vanishing from this place and he knows it. Which is why he groans and slumps forward a little, grimacing. He tugs at his collar, face still red, and keeps his eyes averted. ]
No, that won't work. I'll come in with you. Let's just... make it quick, alright?
no subject
yeah ok pointHis reaction throws her somewhat, the shinki fully expecting him to take her up on her offer; really, he would be crazy not to. But when he agrees, well...
He'll get something of a reassuring, altogether thankful smile and a nod. Let's just agree to never talk about this again okay? ]
Together then?
[ Into the lacy, scantily-clad belly of the beast! ]
no subject
Yeah. The sooner we find out what's happening to those missing girls, the sooner we can get away from this place, right?
[ That counts as a silver lining, doesn't it? ]
no subject
[ A quick but appreciative nod in agreement. Good, they were on the same page here. Even still...
(Ugh, that didn't mean she was relishing the idea of going in there and observing. It was uncomfortable!)
Taking a deep breath, gripping the handle, Lux pulled open the door and stepped in, senses immediately assaulted by the low, driving pop music and the faint smell of perfume.
At least they didn't seem to get noticed by one of the sales girls? ]
